He’s 180 lbs and zebairth is 200 plus. That makes a difference.

Would've been nice the 2nd half the year to have both as a 1-2 combo. D gets worried about brute strength run game, and then beat them with speed where they opened up.

Bubba got them to quarter finals 

*besides non covid shortened season

To get to that quarterfinal game it was only 16 teams and UND had to also win one game....iirc

[Big Green]

6 forced turnovers and 6 points given up.  Unbelievable game for defense against a team averaging 40 points a game 

[cowboys5xsbs]

For Erics first season this is above and beyond my expectations 

[Sioux90]

This might be a Neo moment for this defense. 

[Feff]

Even getting sacks with the two's, Schmidt really has this defense going.

Oh yeah?

Curious what year that was?

Spring 2021.  Less teams playing so I guess take of it what you want. 

[ChrisUND1]

Visparas had good numbers at EWU and was the OVC offensive player of year.  Take it for what it’s worth, but UND destroyed him today.

It’s just means more

[cowboys5xsbs]

Turnover game over UND wins 

[cowboys5xsbs]

Congrats on your first playoff win Eric.  I hope there are many more to come.

This is easily the worst one loss college FB team I've seen on any level. Dreadful 

Was their conference really that weak or did they have a super easy schedule to pad that record?

Need the ground n pound.

[F'n Hawks]

Highly doubt Jerry will be ready after that hit. Regardless, it needs to be Romfo next week

How about career FCS postseason wins?

[Feff]

With that game over, I really hope that's the last time that officiating crew takes the field. I also think they need to get reviewed for the Jerry hit.

Bet your wife's boyfriend's Christmas gift budget on UND and take the points. Then go buy your girlfriend something nice for Christmas with your winnings. UND will win this outright.

You're welcome!

Yes it was that bad.

Kudos to Simon. He came in and was better than Jerry. That's all that was needed to win this one offensively. 

100%.  Isaac may be better calling plays for Simon.....

[CMSioux]

MVFC - we are what we said we are. Youngstown state blew it though.

Sawyer never saw the field again after his fumble.  Any idea if he he got nicked up or just sat cuz of the fumble?

I think we just needed the grindas 

[homer]

I’ll take the ugly win.  If read option continues to be our offense, Simon has to be the guy next week

My guess is because of the fumble. They did this against USD too

Sat in favor of the more powerful running game to ice the clock
